EVO X slow?!

So I was flipping through some mags at publix while my girl was buying hair care products and I read in Car & Driver or some other biased mag that the X runs a 13.8 1/4 mile?! WTF! Does this sound way wrong to anyone else? Skidpad numbers were .97g, the car is a tad heavier but makes more power. I don't think it's possible to run over a half a sec. slower...

I guess we'll have to see when it finally hits the streets.

But I tend to agree with you on this one.

they did say the 0-60 will be 5.0
so far ix > x

my 9 will beat x anyday~

they prolly didnt launch it
mitsu was probably like "you cannot abuse this car whatsoever in testing it"

... or you will void the warranty on EVERY X THAT IS RELEASED!"

They did a testing on the car in one of the import mags this month, I forgot which one. They proved that on paper it was "slower" than the 9 but when put on the track with the same driver, going balls out, that the 10 was 1 sec faster arround the track, which was Mitsu's proving track in Japan. The car is slightly heavier but has the AYC and YAW control now.

i would hate to pay for the servicing the AYC every 10k miles...

I dont think it is that frequent. As soon as we get one in, I will check that out for sure.

my freidns in korea who has the jdm evo service theirs every 10k

but then again the roads are quite different than the ones here in us. (more harsh to the car)

I still want a X.

i kinda like the new sti.

Optional two-piece rotors? Cool ... That'll throw the SCCA for a loop ...
